It was an ok book. The data used as examples are very old (1930-40ish) that it is hard to relate to current generation. For ex: The author gives an example that the average Yale graduate salary is $25100 a year. Apparently, it was very high “back then”. Too hard for us to understand the point the author wants to make here.

It could be a great book if the content/data is more up-to-date.
